I've decided not to include my Surefire 6P or my Maglite 2D because even though they have powerful dropins or replacement bulbs, this isn't what the company provides but an aftermarket mod. So as awesome as my 6P is for a host, there's nothing cutting edge about what I pulled out of the box in comparison to the rest of my torches (as in, the things in it that I like come from elsewhere). If we count a fully modified one that the manufacturer doesn't agree with as a point for the manufacturer, it's a bit odd.
My PD32 UE is one of my favourites - high-power, nice neutral and very broad beam. I keep it in my backpack, which means I don't actually use it that often, but it's the first real light that I bought and I've never regretted it.
Olight i3S is nice and tiny to keep around but then throws out an impressive high and low. This is THE light I recommend to normal people who just want a little keychain light to have out and about. I bought some for my family and gave my own one to my brother, but I constantly want to buy a new one whenever I give it to someone. So many features on such a tiny light.
The Olight M10 has replaced the Fenix TK22 (T6) that I had on this list. I still keep the TK22 by my bed as before, but I think the M10 needs to be on this list more. Great UI, very good tint and great size. It's probably the one that I use the most (partly because it's easier to access since it's on my belt).
The Kathmandu is a little one I used to keep on my neck and seems to be a Streamlight Nano rip-off. Survives showers and just doesn't break while always being on me. I switched to a FourSevens Atom AL for my neck, but the little Kathmandu one was very reliable and great, so I'll always have one and it belongs on this list. The Atom AL is great and in time may take over on the list since it has so many features, but at the moment I think the Kathmandu should stay there.
Finally, the Eagletac has a great UI. Only thing I'd like to change is the emitter to something neutral (though preferably brighter than the Nichia that they offer). For how I use it, it's dead-useful. I still carry it in my pocket, but find I use the M10 more because it's easier to access the low and the high and has momentary-on. The main things that it stays for are tailstanding, the moonlight mode and the insane brightness on a li-ion.
